What in the Wide Wide Underwater World did I Capture?

DougV · 09-12-11, 10:11 PM

Here's an interesting image can you tell what I captured with my Humminbird Side Imaging?

Bassboss · 09-12-11, 10:18 PM

looks like a barge...

Jrob78 · 09-12-11, 10:22 PM

A car or truck?

3dkicker · 09-12-11, 10:49 PM

Somebody dragging bottom trying to find those boxes??

sharrison · 09-13-11, 12:19 AM

crab traps?

bassboogieman · 09-13-11, 09:36 AM

I think it's a UPS truck and that box on the left is a BPS order I never received.................

nofearengineer · 09-13-11, 11:23 AM

Those look to be pretty good size objects...about 2.5-3 feet on a side. And they must have some mass to them...heavy enough to create a furrow as they're dragged, but not so heavy they wouldn't budge, like a rock. I say dragged because the bottom doesn't look steep enough for them to just slide, and the others are just sitting there.

The vertical lines on the right look like some sort of video artifact; I'm not really sure if they're an object (look at the very top right...same thing).

I'm really scratching my head on this one.

A wild-*** guess...washers and dryers that someone dumped.

I was thinking more along the lines of where Tom Hanks was looking for those fed-ex boxes in Castaway.

Dock on the bottom right side. Two of the boxes look like they are heavy enough to stay on bottom, but light enough for the current to move them along. The other three could be heavier, but I don't know. The sides appear to be solid. I have seen simular shapes on Lake Sam Rayburn in Texas along a submerged railroad, but those were concrete and no way would they slide along the bottom. Again just a guess on the boxes, but the lower right corner is most definately a dock. A commercial dock I am guessing since it is at least 30' wide per the 100' setting on the right side of your unit, plus at least 65' of dock still showing on the screen.

Hey Doug
I must ask you to reread this sites TERMS AND AGREEMENTS. Please refer to page 87 subsection 2a paragraph 2: "all specific questions not answered correctly must be answered by original poster within 24 hours of the original query.....failure to do so will result in severe fines and penalties as well as whatever punitive damages the board may see fit"

Like a free Humminbird 998Csi for everyone that has responded to said querry.....

DougV · 09-13-11, 10:50 PM

That is correct! This was a floating Dock in the Muskogee Harbor on the Arkansas River. The Square Blocks are Concrete Anchors and if you look close can see the stell cables attached to them. One thing that is interesting is the bottom anchor that dragged you can see a depression like where it was dropped into the water and made a crater then was dragged under the dock. On the Right you can see the big dock and if you look there are some fish suspended under neath of the dock. There are a few larger fish on the left side and some bait supsended in the water column.

Hope this helps your learn more about your Humminbird SIde Imaging unit.

oglejust · 09-13-11, 10:53 PM

i still have no idea how/where u guys r seeing that stuff lol im not a fish finder type of person.. as much as i need and would like to b

DougV · 09-14-11, 11:16 AM

Does this help?

oglejust · 09-14-11, 06:40 PM

thank you, i still dont c how u can tell the fish from the bottom lol i no theyre supposed to look like arches but idk lol

DougV · 09-14-11, 06:45 PM

THey don't look like arches in High Frequency Sonar Side Imaging or Down Imaging they look like the natural state. I've been running SI sonar since 2004 and alot of it does to how you train your eyes over the last 7 years. THe easiest ones are the white marks out of place or in good ambush points to look for fish.

champman · 09-14-11, 08:27 PM

Hey folks, If you think about it, no matter what you think you see or don't see here it is without a doubt the coolest thing to come along in fishing in the 40 years I've been chasing those green rascals. I have to get one of those S.I.s SHA ZAM! sorry Gomer.
